The Cellar - View Single Post - Caroline Kennedy wants the NY Senate Seat

The person who most deserved that appointment to Senator was NY AG Cuomo. He had demonstrated much competence and a strong desire to make hard decisions. Why Caroline Kennedy was even being considered is said to have been a great frustration to Cuomo.

However, it could be suggested that the Governor would let the Kennedy ‘campaign’ blow over; then appoint Cuomo after the turmoil settled. I don’t see any reason for appointing that Senate seat to Kennedy. When the public begins to grasp that, then the Governor probably will appoint Cuomo.
